Devotional Memoir

Standing on gravestones

The organ shrieks as we enter the sanctuary. Dissonant. Avant garde notes bouncing off ancient stone floors. Filling the arched ceilings. 

Discordant.

Disconcerting. 

Seemingly out of place with the luminous stained glass and stately wooden pews.

Arched ceilings in Sint Bavokerk, Haarlem, the Netherlands.
